Post by: nurse2mrow on Sep 6, 2014
A patient with a large stomach tumor that is attached to the liver is scheduled to have a debulking procedure. The nurse explains that the expected outcome of this surgery is
a.   control of the tumor growth by removal of malignant tissue.
b.   promotion of better nutrition by relieving the pressure in the stomach.
c.   relief of pain by cutting sensory nerves in the stomach.
d.   reduction of the tumor burden to enhance adjuvant therapy.
